What is upland?

Greetings budding cryptoheads,

Today we are straying a bit from our usual topics of free crypto, to focus on something new, the game Upland. Upland is virtual property trading game, that allows it's users to purchase properties in the form of NFTs, and trade them on a free market. Properties can be purchased via the in-game currency UPX, or with fiat currencies like the US dollar. 

Why Melbourne?

So far, all of the cities in the Upland game are in the US. This is fair enough considering it is most likely where the vast majority of their player base is. However, Australia also has many many people that are interested in blockchain and NFTs, so they will undoubtedly be wanting to buy a tokenized property on their own home soil. In addition, Melbourne is a massive place of interest for people anywhere in the world.

Often referred to as the sports capital of the world and the worlds' most livable city, Melbourne has a rich, global culture, gorgeous architecture, and a rapidly growing urban population. All of this makes it a very unique place to own an NFT in, and one which will sell out almost instantly. Personally, I would be scrambling to buy properties like Flinders' Street Station, the Eureka Tower, and the iconic Melbourne Exhibition Building. Melbourne also has one of the most beautiful skylines of any major city in the world. The Yarra river curls around the massive buildings, new and old, and gives the city a magical feel to it, unmatched by anywhere else in the world.

In summary, Melbourne should be included as part of Upland, because it is a city dripping with culture and architecture, and will be a very unique place to own an NFT in!

That's all for today, feel free to comment what I should post about next!
